Re: Rear seal or pan gasket leak

There is a fair difference in smell and feel between engine oil and gear oil. Give it the sniff test. Between that and the trans oil being thicker (I hope), you should be able to determine which it is.

When you put it back together, did you use a rope rear main seal or neoprene (if that was an available option the gasket set)?
